Dak Prescott places blame on the defense as the Cowboys endure another forgettable year

With only two weeks left in the season, the Dallas Cowboys are once again staring into the abyss of another forgettable year for fans, players, and ownership alike. For the second consecutive season, and the fourth time in the last seven, "America's Team" has failed to reach the postseason. Even more staggering is the realization that Dallas has now reached the 30 year mark without a Conference Championship appearance, a feat every other NFC team has managed to accomplish at least once since 2010.Their 34-17 loss to the Chargers this weekend was a mere formality, as they were mathematically eliminated before kickoff, but it served as a brutal autopsy of their season. The defense, a liability for two years running, reached a new low. They have allowed over 20 points in every game save for one and have surrendered 30 […]

Jerry Jones addresses Matt Eberflus as Cowboys defense collapses

The Dallas Cowboys 34-17 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Saturday once again laid bare the persistent issues with the Texas team's defense. The result effectively ended any remaining playoff hopes for Jerry Jones and shifts the focus toward moving forward and evaluating potential changes, with defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus squarely in the spotlight.While Dallas has struggled to find consistency as a complete team, much of the criticism has centered on Eberflus, given that the Cowboys currently field one of the league's worst defenses. Dallas allowed 452 total yards and forced just one punt over the entire game. On top of that, the Cowboys set another unwanted mark: for the first time this season, quarterback Justin Herbert was not sacked, reinforcing the narrative that even struggling offenses tend to look dominant when facing Dallas.Prior to week 16, Dallas was […]

Matt Eberflus is back in the spotlight against the Commanders after the Cowboys’ defense leaves many questions unanswered

The Dallas Cowboys' performance in the stunning loss to the Carolina Panthers has forced defensive coordinator Matt Eberflusinto damage control mode. Speaking ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Washington Commanders, he made it clear that the Cowboys are bracing for another difficult test against an improving offense."It's an explosive offense, it's a wide-open offense," Eberflus said. "Obviously, they're doing a heck of a job running the football. It's important that you have your pieces in place, it's important that you mix your calls, you've got to be able to do that, and he's done a really good job there with the young quarterback. It's going to be a big challenge."Missed tackles, mental lapses, and poor coverage have plagued Dallas all season. Players appear out of sync, and the aggressive, swarming identity that once defined this defense has evaporated.Dallas defense falters […]

Caleb Williams takes an unusual approach to sharpen his skills ahead of Bears’ season opener

Caleb Williams is approaching his second season in the NFL with the weight of high expectations and a desire to prove himself after a turbulent rookie year with the Chicago Bears. The quarterback's early struggles in training camp under first-year head coach Ben Johnson had fans questioning whether Williams could evolve into the franchise cornerstone the team envisioned when selecting him first overall in the 2024 draft.Amid the scrutiny, Williams has turned to a distinctive method to enhance his performance. On Thursday, ESPN's Courtney Cronin detailed how the young quarterback is using his car as a personal training tool."He says he listens to voice recordings of his playcalls at the line of scrimmage and yells out his cadence while driving in his car to get more comfortable with using his vocal inflection as a weapon," Cronin wrote. Johnson added that […]

Bears’ Ben Johnson is turning training camp into a pressure cooker for Caleb Williams

The Chicago Bears are betting big on Caleb Williams in Year Two, and new head coach Ben Johnson isn't leaving his development to chance. After a 5-12 rookie season that saw Williams sacked a league-high 68 times, the former Heisman winner is being put through a training camp that's intentionally tough-by design.Johnson, who replaced Matt Eberflus in the offseason, told reporters Wednesday that the goal is to make practices harder than game day. The play calls have been loaded with extra verbiage, situations are engineered to test his patience, and even the presnap reads are designed to slow him down before they speed him up. "We've challenged him... and that was by design,"Johnson said."Once we get into game week, we'll condense the language. By Week 1, I think we'll be in a good spot."Caleb Williams strains to aim as pressure […]

Jon Gruden reveals the major problem with the Cowboys’ defense that has not been fixed

The Dallas Cowboys have long been associated with powerhouse defensive play, especially during the rise of Micah Parsons. However, in 2024, their once-formidable defense collapsed, ranking a disappointing 28th in the NFL.That dramatic slide led to major changes: head coach Mike McCarthy was dismissed, and defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer lasted only one season.With Brian Schottenheimer taking the helm and Matt Eberflus stepping in to coordinate defenses, the Cowboys are hoping for a turnaround, but caution is being sounded.Midway through the offseason, former NFL head coach Jon Gruden issued a stark warning: outside of Parsons, the Cowboys lack a defined defensive identity and clear leadership. Gruden, during a recent interview, stated: "I don't think their defense other than Parsons has an identity. You know, and [DeMarcus] Lawrence is gone. ...

This is not the case for the Dallas Cowboys, who, led by Brian Schottenheimer, decided to involve their players in a peculiar activity in which new 'leaderships' were revealed.Patrick Mahomes acts in a way that surprises his teammates on the fieldTyler Smith says the activity was a lot of funSteelers Discuss Trade for Jonnu Smith with DolphinsAccording to Jon Machota of The Athletic, the Cowboys had a fun 'paintball' […]
